Debian bug 617468 seems to be about the same blank page issue. I'll
report on Brock's findings there and see what happens.

Having trouble determining that. It seems that if the PDF printer is
deleted using "lpadmin -x", installation of cups-pdf (both 2.5.0-16 and
2.5.1-2) doesn't automatically create the PDF printer, and you have to
create it manually.
Anyway, as far as I can tell the issue arises only when the PDF pr
Brock, thanks for these additional precisions. What I'm especially
interested in are the differences between the automatically added
printer and the manually added one, in both cases using 2.5.1-2
packages.

Looking at /etc/cups/printers.conf, the only obvious difference between
the print PDF created by the stock maverick cups-pdf-2.5.0 package,
which prints blank pages after upgrading to your cups-pdf-2.5.1 package,
and one created manually after the upgrade, are the Filter lines.

Can you notice anything different in the CUPS settings for those two
printers? Is the one that you created manually perhaps sing a different
PPD? I'm just trying to figure out why the one created at install time
wouldn't work and the one created manually does.

I can confirm that this problem occurs when your cups-pdf package is
installed without removing the printer "PDF" created by the stock
package. Also, it seems that "apt-get purge" on the stock cups-pdf
package sometimes removes the printer "PDF", and sometimes does not.

I think the one I deleted (which was printing blank PDFs) was the one
created by the stock cups-pdf package, which didn't get deleted when I
purged the package.

Brock, that sounds like a really odd way to fix it. Do you notice any
difference between the PDF printer created automatically by the package
at installation time and the one that you maanually created?

Tried your 2.5.1-1 Meerkat package, hoping to get ability to use

only yields empty pdfs with no content, no matter what I try to print.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug. Could you please test
this against the current version of "cups-pdf" found in my Personal
Package Archive (PPA) at https://launchpad.net/~q-funk/+archive/ppa and

Please note that CUPS-PDF is just a CUPS back-end meant to be treated as
just any printer with a fixed set of features. Adding any sort of UI to
what is essentially a printer driver, rather than a PDF export tool,
would not be an easy task.
As for the process of PDF generation in general, please n
Yes, a second bug for adding UI elements to control the process of PDF
generation would make sense, but note that it is more a feature request
than a bug report.
Yes, each "*OpenUI...*CloseUI" section in the PPD file is one printer
option in the printing dialog.

Till, thank you for your comments. This originated from a customer (the
original reporter). I have reproduced this locally so I confirmed it.
My workaround was to use ps2pdf directly, which works as expected,
although is not ideal but we support. I still wanted to open a bug as
the original reason
You could also do the following:
As Ghostscript can both read and generate PDF, you could make the use of
Ghostscript on PDF code optional using an additional parameter in the
config file.
Most users want to have straight use of CUPS' PDF output to get high
speed and less risk of quality and file

Martin-Éric, you do not need to revert to the awkward forth-and-back
conversion. The low resolution can also be achieved with the pstopdf

The problem is the following:
In Ubuntu we have a PDF-based printing workflow. All jobs arriving at
CUPS are turned to PDF by filters which ship with the CUPS package. Then
the pdftopdf CUPS filter does page management (N-up, reverse order,
selected pages, ...) and then PDF data is passed on to th
